Azure AI Document Intelligence supports a wide variety of models that enable you to add intelligent document processing to your apps and flows. You can use a prebuilt domain-specific model or train a custom model tailored to your specific business need and use cases. Document Intelligence can be used with the REST API or Python, C#, Java, and JavaScript client libraries.
Note
- Document processing projects that involve financial data, protected health data, personal data, or highly sensitive data require careful attention.
- Be sure to comply with all national/regional and industry-specific requirements.

Latency
Latency is the amount of time it takes for an API server to handle and process an incoming request and deliver the outgoing response to the client. The time to analyze a document depends on the size (for example, number of pages) and associated content on each page. Document Intelligence is a multitenant service where latency for similar documents is comparable but not always identical. Occasional variability in latency and performance is inherent in any microservice-based, stateless, asynchronous service that processes images and large documents at scale. Although we're continuously scaling up the hardware and capacity and scaling capabilities, you might still have latency issues at runtime.

Bounding box and polygon coordinates
A bounding box (polygon
in v3.0 and later versions) is an abstract rectangle that surrounds text elements in a document used as a reference point for object detection.
The bounding box specifies position by using an x and y coordinate plane presented in an array of four numerical pairs. Each pair represents a corner of the box in the following order: upper left, upper right, lower right, lower left.
Image coordinates are presented in pixels. For a PDF, coordinates are presented in inches.
For all models, except Business card model, Document Intelligence now supports add-on capabilities to allow for more sophisticated analysis. These optional capabilities can be enabled and disabled depending on the scenario of the document extraction. There are seven add-on capabilities available for the 2023-07-31
(GA) and later API version:

Sample Closing disclosure document processed using Document Intelligence Studio:
Contract
The contract model analyzes and extracts key fields and line items from contractual agreements including parties, jurisdictions, contract ID, and title. The model currently supports English-language contract documents.
Sample contract processed using Document Intelligence Studio:
Invoice
The invoice model automates processing of invoices to extracts customer name, billing address, due date, and amount due, line items, and other key data. Currently, the model supports English, Spanish, German, French, Italian, Portuguese, and Dutch invoices.
Sample invoice processed using Document Intelligence Studio:
Receipt
Use the receipt model to scan sales receipts for merchant name, dates, line items, quantities, and totals from printed and handwritten receipts. The version v3.0 also supports single-page hotel receipt processing.
Sample receipt processed using Document Intelligence Studio:
Identity document (ID)
Use the Identity document (ID) model to process U.S. Driver's Licenses (all 50 states and District of Columbia) and biographical pages from international passports (excluding visa and other travel documents) to extract key fields.
Sample U.S. Driver's License processed using Document Intelligence Studio:
Marriage certificate
Use the marriage certificate model to process U.S. marriage certificates to extract key fields including the individuals, date, and location.
Sample U.S. marriage certificate processed using Document Intelligence Studio:
Credit card
Use the credit card model to process credit and debit cards to extract key fields.
Sample credit card processed using Document Intelligence Studio:
Custom models
Custom models can be broadly classified into two types. Custom classification models that support classification of a "document type" and custom extraction models that can extract a defined schema from a specific document type.
Custom document models analyze and extract data from forms and documents specific to your business. They recognize form fields within your distinct content and extract key-value pairs and table data. You only need one example of the form type to get started.
Version v3.0 and later custom models support signature detection in custom template (form) and cross-page tables in both template and neural models. Signature detection looks for the presence of a signature, not the identity of the person who signs the document. If the model returns unsigned for signature detection, the model didn't find a signature in the defined field.
Sample custom template processed using Document Intelligence Studio:
Custom extraction
Custom extraction model can be one of two types, custom template or custom neural. To create a custom extraction model, label a dataset of documents with the values you want extracted and train the model on the labeled dataset. You only need five examples of the same form or document type to get started.
Sample custom extraction processed using Document Intelligence Studio:
Custom classifier
The custom classification model enables you to identify the document type before invoking the extraction model. The classification model is available starting with the 2023-07-31 (GA)
API. Training a custom classification model requires at least two distinct classes and a minimum of five samples per class.
Composed models
A composed model is created by taking a collection of custom models and assigning them to a single model built from your form types. You can assign multiple custom models to a composed model called with a single model ID. You can assign up to 200 trained custom models to a single composed model.
